Coming up with a top ten list of the most beautiful women of all time is a real challenge. Where do you start? Models? Movie Stars? Playboy Playmates? Well, with apologies to all those beautiful women I will inevitably leave off the list, here are my choices, in no particular order, for the top ten most beautiful women of all time.
Elizabeth Taylor
Born on February 27, 1932 in NW London, this classic beauty starred in some of the greatest Hollywood movies of all time. At age 12, her career took off with the role of Velvet Brown in “National Velvet”. She starred with James Dean in “Giant” and won an Academy Award for her portrayal of a prostitute in “Butterfield 8″.
Audrey Hepburn

Sophia Loren
Born Sofia Scicolone in Rome, Italy on September 20, 1934, Sophia spent her early years living in the slums of Italy during World War II. She developed from a skinny child of 14 into a voluptuous beauty as she grew a few years older. Known as the “Italian Marilyn Monroe”, in 1991, People Magazine chose her as One of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the World.
Raquel Welch

She gained worldwide attention in her fur bikini, as Loana the cave girl, in the cult classic “One Million Years B.C.”.
Marilyn Monroe
Born Norma Jeane Mortenson in 1926, this blond haired, blue eyed beauty is the epitomy of beauty. Elton John paid tribute to her in the song “Candle in the Wind”. She was once married to Yankee star Joe Dimaggio and was a pinup girl for millions of young, American men. People Magazine voted her “Sexiest Woman of the Century”
Salma Hayek
Born on September 2, 1966, this Mexican Beauty has graced the covers of many magazines. She has appeared in many movies and has used her Spanish accent to her advantage.

Rita Hayworth
Born in 1918, Rita Hayworth became one of the most desired actresses of the 1930s and 1940s. Her long legs and sexy hair gave her a look that made men weak in the knees.
Brigitte Bardot
